All dictionaries can be installed separately:
- by default, textproc/aspell installs the English dictionaries (no
change);
- thereafter you can install any foreign dictionary;
- when you install a foreign dictionary, i.e. french/aspell or
textproc/da-aspell, it installs only the dictionaries, and depends
upon textproc/aspell for the programs;
- if you don't need the English dictionaries, you can define
WITHOUT_DICTEN or install textproc/aspell-without-dicten;
- add a new port for textproc/en-aspell: if aspell had been installed
without the English dictionaries, they can be added thereafter;
- add a missing port for german/alt-aspell;
- foreign dictionaries are almost independent from textproc/aspell,
and their maintainership is available.
